Scarborough was once a great place when my parents bought a house in the 70s, my brother and sister went to Thompson and loved it, by the time I got around to going in the late 90s it was a piece of garbage. Scarborough in fact has become a piece of garbage, I can’t wait to move out from here it has turned into a wasteland for poverty and the city shoves all the gov’t housing there.

i will be attending thomson this year (2009-2010)
I’m not for this whole demolishing thing because you have students just starting this school and i don’t think it’s right to shove them in another school due to demolition. There are hundreds of students in thomson and you can’t find a place for each and everyone of them.

When I attended Thomson, the Bendale School was called BTI for one reason: BIG TIME IDIOT – that was where all the problems, drugs, issues, violence, everything was. Maybe I’m being kinda naive, but do we really want the two schools intermingled like that?

Mr. Andrews’ suggestion makes the most sense to me…

Food for thought:
DMT and Bendale are connected at the back, so the property is connected and the new school construction could be done at DMT. The only reason I believe DMT was chosen to be “the surplus land to be sold”, is that its prime real estate being on a Lawrence Ave. A condo or business would do well.

Hidden agenda, is the true culprit $$$?
